I can see that possibly having potential but would we be able to take on that contract.....but I think he would work well with an ACTUAL Defensive Coordinator that knows how to use him (pretty much put him on the right side and keep him there)

Revis always wants to be paid.
More trouble than he is worth IMO.
The talent is obviously there but the man thinks nothing of honouring his contract.

Well, the consensus seems to be that the Eagles will be purging salaries and Nnamdi will be one of the released...

Would need to be a big salary cut with the cap situation.
I suppose it depends if he wants money or a shot at a ring.

Jets just suck at every aspect....I honestly think he was trying to hold out in the offseason because he knew where they were headed and wanted to force them to trade him. Not the best way to go about it but its a way.....the Jets are in a get out while you can situation man...I would try to get out too. I think a change of scenery would be good for him. Pretty much anywhere that has a competent QB in his case.... But right now we can't afford him with the contract he's already on anyway so...

No matter what, we have to get younger, faster, stronger in the front seven:
(Alternative Option); Injured Reserve

LDE Cam Jordan; Junior Galette
LDT Broderick Bunkley; Akiem Hicks
RDT Henry Melton (Glenn Dorsey); Tom Johnson
RDE Michael Young; Martez Wilson; Greg Romeus

WLB Jon Vilma (Erin Henderson); Jonathan Casillas
MLB Curtis Lofton; Ramon Humber
SLB David Hawthorn; Will Herring

Leodis McKelvin - excellent on special teams, has starting corner experience, should be inexpensive, provides depth to our secondary

What is the grading/scouting service you used when reading his report...

Nothing. Back to his college days at Troy, he's always been an excellent kick/punt returner. He hasn't become the corner he was drafted to be, but has no issues spot starting and guard backup wide outs. He's always been a player I've tailed throughout his career because I was so high on him coming out.
